Top class photographer!

I have had a couple of photoshoots with Lara Jayne by now and I am always blown away by the whole experience. First of all, her laughter is contagious, so the smiles she captures are always genuine. She goes out of her way to make one feel comfortable and goes through great lengths to get great shots. I love the photos she takes and can highly recommend Lara Jayne to anyone looking to capture their special moments!

Best wedding photographer!

Lara was incredible at our wedding! From start to finish the booking process was smooth, she offered so much help with our wedding planning, our pre-wedding consultation was so thorough making sure we didn't miss any shots we wanted, and then on the the day she was so friendly with all our guests!
Lara put us completely at ease when we were having our couple photos, telling us what to do, resulting in beautiful pictures.

Thank you soo much Lara!

Incredible Photographer

I worked with Lara Jayne recently for an intimate wedding, and she was truly magnificent. So easy to work alongside, really put the couple and guests at ease, and after having seen a few photos I can truly say she is very talented. If you’re considering a photographer, I would 100% recommend Lara!

The Best in the industry. Highly recommend. Lovely personality. Very creative. Willing to go above and beyond.

Lara has done a couple of photo shoots for me over the last 10 years from personal to engagement, wedding and a recent couple shoot. I love her creativity and ability to capture the moment so naturally. Also she has a lovely temperament of patience and positivity and at the same time knows exactly what her vision is for the shoot. I highly recommend her and will be using her in the future again. Thank you Lara.
